I like it when he says "Bruce Lee Sensei". The Arts bring people together regardless of race, religion, national- political histories. It has that positive, transcendent quality to it.

Mr Nakamura is great, solid techniques, good speed and control, clear descriptions (I understood what he explained, even though I don't speak much Japanese). Yet I somehow got distracted by the background. That gym is NICE!!
a great sifu congratulation and thank you to keep on teaching the real bruce lee's jeet kune do. Go to see sifu tim tackett videos he is another good teacher of jkd
You have very nice skill and move very well Bruce Lee got me into training jeet kune do and chinese martial arts in in the early 70s because of his movies and what he stood for in the martial arts if it wasent for him i would not be where i am today Since then i have taught over 15,000 students since 1975 i stay in ultimate shape for being in my low 60s. i developed create develop and flow or cdf academy in 1980 to think out of the box and be creative in ones training & flow without thought .
Rei Yes he did and looks very proficient! How long have you been a Bruce Lee/Jeet Kune do fan? Since you a fan please check out my Bruce Lee RU-vid channel and join our growing Bruce Lee community by subscribing! Thanks Charles
Jkd is Bruce's personal expression......his whole point was for us(martial artists) to create ours. That's the major points of his principles and concepts. If Bruce haven't pass away. He will be adding more to *Jkd* his personal expression. Guys like Dan Inosanto and Yuri Nakumura teach jkd the way Lee himself express it, out of respect for his knowledge and teaching like many other's. Dan himself was a personal student and friend of Bruce, so he knows how to pass it on base on Bruce's expressions, Yuri Nakumura (Dan student) is a example of his teaching also. He is no fake, Yuri is a shoot fighting champion in Japan, his knowledge that Dan pass on to him and way he teaches it to his students is very profound, he takes Dan teaching very seriously.
I favor expression over style! Style is a word that represents complexity and rigidity. Bruce concept of absorbing what is useful, and rejecting what is useless, and adding what is essentially your own/using no way, as way/no limitation, as limitation represent a term that brings on Jkd true meaning, "Self-knowledge!"
It deed it was! He looks very proficient! I met Dan at a few JKD seminars and did some JKD with Ted Wong before he passed! How about you? How long have you been a Bruce Lee/Jeet Kune do fan?

Jeet Kune in itself is a concept. It is not a "mix of concepts" of different martial arts. Jeet Kune Do is simple,direct and non-classical. That is all. You are not supposed to add stuff to it,only reduce and practice the most effective techniques in all ranges of combat - Kicking,Punching,Traping and Grappling. Best regards.
Martial Arts Mecca yep hacking away at the unessential daily absorbing what is useful discarding that which isn't simplicity is brilliance as Lee stated many still dont understand Lee's philosophy
I looks like you have studied with my friend and teacher Guro Danny Inosanto you have a great video i liked it very much i met Guro Dan in 1980 in torrance califorina . My chinese teacher grand Master Wai Lun Chois bare knuckle champion of singapore is one of his favorite teachers i was honored to train with both and guro rich lamoureaux . . I have over 400 videos on you tube under sifu jack or cdf academy check them out Sifu Nakamura. teacher book real gold does not fear the fire .. cdf

Very skill full but he seems to be the man who told me l could not have JKD class on Tokyo because he was the only person allowed to. That made me do it and we still have small group practicing after all these. If it's not the same man l apologize.
Jeet Kune do is simply to block your competitor's move with a striking counter attack and sometimes hitting him with an utter surprise even before he even try to make a move. Bruce Lee's movies fighting scenes are filled with them.
To add more insult to injury- JKD was not built as a martial art...it was a book of philosophy that was to teach people on how to build their own systems to accustom their body and minds according to what they want to add to it- in short, it didn't spoon feed it's practioners- it gave them creative freedom to choose what to incorporate. If you want to even go further in that discussion, China isn't the only one with a 4000 year old martial art: Russia's Pozna Sebia is just as old.
Sticky hands only works 2-3 strike combo. then they back of at punching distance. Only wingchun artists will stay their and play it with you. I use it successfully in 2-3 striking combos it gets me in close for the punch or elbow or knee.
All the students of bruce lee were from different nationality , he works hard for the people accept that's martial art could be learn by everybody, not only chinese. Martial art is not only about learning, that also about sharing ! It doesn't matter about where you from is about how you do it.
@ EmotionalShredd - If Yori comes into a ground fight? He's going to do absolutely anything he wants. His ground work (Shooto) is WAY better than anything he does in trapping range. This video doesn't even highlight what he does best. His ground work is as skilled as anyone in the world. He's an absolute wrecking machine. :-)
*Did his best to bring awareness of it's beauty, power and greatness. Who wouldn't be proud of the country that made the Greatwall? Doesn't mean though that they hold every answer, if they did they would've long solved their own problems. My Mentor told me only 1 thing: "If the Prime Mnister of china came to him to give him the job, he's decline it in a heart beat." Who wants to care for billions of people and handle every little problem, stop every Coup d' etat and suffer all their problems?
Great teacher. I finally found and understand the 2% useful concept in Wingchun out of 98% non sense. Most of martial arts has only 15% of techniques useful for fighting, the rest is only useful for competition under their respective rules.
All I hear is: kuyme daimanush... wooosh! sake gasinu... WOOSH! It's like this guy has his own special effects team doing sounds whenever he punches or kicks.
Sifu Nakamura Guro Danny Knows me best for my creative training drills that i always come up with heres one you can try buy some close pins and pin them on each other shirt cross arms and try to take each others close pins off before they can block your hand . Another one trap with one eye closed or box with an eye patch most fight end up with a strike to the eye socket . Very blind to out side attacks have to change way of fighting . Knife grappling with fome fknives in sock on ground ..
-Bruce Lee made JKD as "His own method" of combat. He created it to suit himself and taught others to create a method to suit themselves, they can borrow his movements though to get started on the concepts. It's not CHINESE, it's Bruce Lee's. Last I check, he resided in Hong Kong first, then Thailand, then America. He didn't step foot in mainland China but he did his best to bring awareness of his beauty, power and greatness because he loved his people. What have you done so far?
